    Re: Ukrainian 'refugees'

        Missus feeling a bit rough so I made tea. A load of vegies in the wok. Rice and a nice sauce. She didn't say a lot but I should imagine she's thinking,
        "How did I get so lucky to get a great bloke like this. Not only a good-looking 9 Sqn lad but a top chef as well."
        I have always set myself a very low standard, and constantly fail to achieve it.

            I've worked in a few hotel kitchens as a result of having a pal who was a trained chef. Instead of just waiting in the bar for him to finish work so we could have a drink, he suggested I get in the kitchen and do the veg. Six months later I found myself as head chef in a Welsh market town hotel. We had started out on an agency contract for six weeks , him as head chef and me as his second. He got homesick and pissed off after three weeks so I was made head. Winged it by the seat of my pants. Cheffing is not for the faint hearted. There's pressure and stress constantly when the diners are in. But on the plus side, there is good banter, the pleasure of producing good meals, always plenty of booze at hand and the topping of working amongst some lovely young lasses. It was back to the trees for me though.

                Wouldn't fancy doing it for a living, Chris. But started to enjoy a bit of cooking the last few years. Maybe I should join up again in the Catering Corp (or whatever they call it nowadays)

                  I've always liked cooking,and always had a great respect for the slop jockies when I was in,especially after Cyprus when I spent 2 months cooking for 20 blokes in poky little kitchens with 2 bottle fed home cookers. Always managed to turn out 2 choices for dinner and teatime,as well as doing a 12 hour radio stag at night when I baked bread and cakes for the next day. Hard graft but satisfying,especially when we went home and wives were coming to me for recipes to keep their hubbies happy after eating my scoff. Every thursday I did 2 curries and the blokes from other locations used to drive miles to come and sample them. The only hitch I had was when the MO paid a surprise nightime visit to find me using the syringe from the first aid box to squirt jam into doughnuts,and wasn't pleased!
